The current version of gp3d is version 0.23 last updated
November 2017

This tool will translate the
2d Garden Planner plan into a 3d world.

This is an early beta
preview version, so not everything works yet, but it's still
fun to play around with.
For testing and development this is a separate tool to Garden Planner,
however the final version will be integrated into Garden Planner.

This update fixes a bunch of bugs. If previously you
tried to open a plan and the plan just got stuck in the loading stage
it should now work.

This latest update includes: the ability to select some
objects and change their height and in some cases style (eg: the wall
texture for a building). Most objects can be seleted and you can change
the elevation. However none of this is saved, so its just for playing
around with.

How to use: in Garden Planner choose to Save a
copy of your plan (from the file menu) and
choose the option to save to a location on your computer. Save the plan
somewhere you will remember (like the desktop) and then open gp3d. Click
on the file open button at the bottom of gp3d and browse for your plan.

Your plan will be translated into 3d. However
the nature of Garden Planner (and indeed all landscape plans) is that
very simple symbols are used to represent plants and trees, so the 3d
software has to make the best guess it can about what type of tree or
plant should appear in your plan. In future updates there will be options
to further customize the 3d version of a tree or plant.

Feedback: please provide some feedback,
it really helps.
This is an early beta so expect some things to not quite work or be missing,
and I am aware of all plants and objects that haven't been added in yet.
However, if you find the software runs slowly, or anything in the plan
just looks strange it helps to let me know. Also if you find that the
3d version of a plant or object looks very different to what you thought
it should look like then it helps to know that. Finally its also great
to get positive feedback - do you find this tool useful? are there changes
that could make it easier to use? what features are most important to
you?
